Review: 30380 Kylo Ren's Shuttle Polybag

I wasn't expecting to review this yet, but I was at a new -- to me -- Target last night and this was in the checkout aisles.

Bag. MSRP is $3.99 for a $0.12 Price per Piece.

Instructions.

Parts. Bar Studs, a Padlock, Clip Plates, Grille Tiles and

Bar Plates in Dark Bley, 2x2 Inverted Studless Slopes,

Wedge Plates, Plates, a Bracket, and Cheese Slopes.

Build. Yes, I know, it's terrible.

The Questions:

Can you build something -- a frame, station, or starship -- right away? Yes. (+5)Is it below, at, or above the golden ratio? Above. (-10) (The Golden Ratio is $0.10 per part.)If you can't build a frame right away, or choose not to, does it have parts you should be able to put into use right away? Yes. (+5)Does it have more than a handful of immediately useful parts? No. (-5)Score: -5 (B-). Falls victim to the "Star Wars Tax" but has a decent selection of parts.
